Chapter 943: Routine Deep Three

"I don't understand what you're saying, the United States has so many planes and warships, how to transport things still depends on the transportation system of mercenary corps, they transport it themselves, can't they save a lot of money?" Li Fuzhen asked curiously.

"What you said is a layman's word, first of all, the mercenary corps is already half of the country in Afghanistan, its power is deep-rooted, it has irreplaceable value, food, daily necessities and oil, and the reserves are very large, which is exactly the condition that the US military needs most."

"A superpower like the United States, if it wants to clean up the poorest country in the world like Afghanistan, at the beginning of the war, it must first play the momentum of the world's first armed force and complete the goal in the shortest possible time, otherwise it will be a little embarrassing, and the whole world is watching this war!"

"Who knows that as soon as they launched an attack, they will be embarrassed by the loss of troops, and their current focus is to put the domestic army and NATO troops into the battlefield in a steady stream, and open up the situation as soon as possible, and the purpose of transportation is personnel and weapons and equipment, so the supply of materials can only rely on mercenaries." Marcus said with a smile.

The two most important cities in northern Afghanistan, Mazar-i-Sharif and Kundutu, have all fallen under the control of the coalition forces, and the next focus is to clear the Taliban army in the north, attack the capital Kabul, especially Jalalabad, and cut off the way for the Taliban army to flee into Bagistan.

"The plan moves to the second stage, preparing to launch the Charikar Blockade, which is the transportation hub connecting Kabul to the north and Herat, this battle with the participation of mercenary regiment special forces, the implementation of special military operations against the camps of the US military, the military expert group to make relevant plans and guidance, and the guerrilla forces we have trained to provide battlefield support and cut off the logistics supply lines of the US army."

"In order to gain time for Kabul's urban offensive and defensive battles, and also to cover the intervention of mercenaries, the Taliban high-level decided to carry out a blockade in Charika, although the result of this battle is undoubtedly defeated, but it is not possible to fight, the Taliban high-level will mobilize 10,000 regular troops and 30,000 local armed forces into the battle." Waiting for a group of women to walk away, Wu Chen said.

At present, the power in Afghanistan is actually controlled by the Taliban government, with a regular army with a total number of more than 50,000 people, and more than 100,000 local armed forces.

But the war has just begun, the Taliban government actually chose to fight guerrillas, the tactical use is very ingenious, and some mysterious high-tech weapons and equipment have appeared, which have made the coalition forces and the Northern Alliance very embarrassed, and this situation will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the US government, which is not very scientific!

Mercenaries must be the number one object of suspicion, because with this operational ability, mercenaries now occupy the largest share of the world's arms trade, and the transaction volume of the major arms exporting countries is not as much as that of a mercenary, and the military research and development capabilities are among the best in the world, and some secret weapons are not unusual, in order to occupy the resources of Afghanistan and help the Taliban government can also be said, it is not so simple to divert attention.

The military expert group took this danger into account, so it proposed to engage in a large-scale interdiction war, and this proposal was affirmed by the Taliban government, and the mentality of the top brass was a little floating because of Mazar-i-Sharif's victory, and they always wanted to fight with the coalition forces, and while the Kabul layout still needed time, they decided to implement the blockade in Charikah.

"We have suffered heavy losses at the beginning of this attack on Afghanistan, and if we don't find a way to reverse the disadvantage, not only will the whole world see the jokes of the United States, but our own people will also lose confidence in the government and the army." Mr. President said with a frown.

Speaking of which, the pressure on the presidential office is also great enough, although the military suffered a defeat, but the psychology of the American people still blames the government for its incompetence, in just half a month, more than 1,000 American GIs have become a coffin, and the US government is also disgraced.

"The situation will get better, after all, we are not familiar with the situation in Afghanistan, and the Taliban army is good at sneak attacks, plus some countries are secretly manipulating and taking measures against it, and it is inevitable that we will suffer losses." said the Minister of Defense.

"Do you think this thing was done by the mercenary corps, when it comes to the research and development of weapons and equipment, the mercenary corps is not lost to any country, including the United States, and it is reasonable to research some new equipment. Also, the mercenaries have full motives, the Taliban government is in power, and the mercenaries can occupy all the resources of Afghanistan, if the new government supported by the United States comes to power, I am afraid that the contract will be changed, and it is not impossible for the mercenaries to act secretly for their own interests. Mr. Vice President said.

"This possibility has also been carefully considered by the Ministry of Defense, and it is indeed very similar to the handiwork of mercenaries, especially raid warfare, which is a method they are very accustomed to. However, it has just been reported that the Taliban government has assembled troops in the transportation hub of Charikar and is preparing for a positional battle, and the current situation proves that the mercenaries are absolutely not involved. ”

"The composition of the mercenary corps is very complex, it can be said that it gathers elite commanders from many military powers, whether it is in terms of military theory or actual combat experience, they are all senior officers, and the military training institution of Hunter has military experts from many countries, and that Wu Chen is a strategic master, and he has achieved no defeat in many wars."

"The advantage of the Taliban army is that it is familiar with the terrain, there are many local supporters, and it is the most correct way to engage in sneak attack warfare and guerrilla warfare, but if you want to fight positional warfare, it is only for us to abuse and kill, and this alone can prove that the mercenaries are not working behind the scenes." said the Minister of Defense.

Although most of the people in this office are not professionals and do not understand military tactics, they understand the simple truth. Why did the Taliban army fight against the U.S. military, relying on the identity of the head snake, hiding in Tibet like a mouse, it is difficult to catch their tails, and the U.S. military is most worried about this tactic.

But positional warfare is different, it is to show its own shortcomings in front of the enemy and be beaten passively, the Taliban government is purely dizzy in adopting such a method, it is the mantis arm that is not able to measure its own strength, all the advantages of the US military can be brought into play, and the strategic bombers alone can overturn every inch of the position, and there will not be a single grass left.

"I think Your Excellency the Minister is correct, the intelligence officers of the CIA and the Ministry of Defense hidden inside the mercenary corps did not transmit the information of the mercenary corps to the headquarters, and there will be no signs of such a big operation, and no matter how strong the secrecy work is, there will be loopholes to be found." The CIA director said.
